Hi, my name is Mike Schneider and I am the owner of FlatFace Fingerboards, the largest fingerboard company in the USA!

We make realistic miniature skateboards and anything you can imagine to go along with them, like ramps, rails, and more! Fingerboarding is a hobby that takes skill and focus, and is loads of fun for creative people of all ages! I started fingerboarding at age 9, I am now 30 and still enjoy it every day!

Our customers range from 8-40 on average! FlatFace was started in my early fingerboarding days and quickly grew so large that I had to employ my parents to work for me, which they do to this day. FlatFace is known as a pioneer in the space, and we have done a lot to build up the community and hobby as a whole.

I never imagined that a fingerboard company could be my livelihood, and it hadn’t ever really been done before. After years and years of doing my best, I was able to make it happen!
